To get the answer to question 1, we can break down the options:
1. Environment: While this term generally refers to the surroundings or conditions in which an organism or community exists, it does not specifically capture the interaction between plants, animals, landscape, and climate.
2. Ecosystem: This term best describes a geographical area where plants, animals, the landscape, and the climate all interact together. It encompasses the interrelationships between living organisms (plants, animals, microorganisms) and their non-living environment (air, water, soil).
3. Biome: Although a biome also refers to a specific geographical area defined by its climate, it does not explicitly capture the interaction between plants, animals, landscape, and climate.
4. Food web: While a food web is a representation of the feeding relationships within an ecosystem, it does not encompass the broader interaction between plants, animals, landscape, and climate.
Thus, the correct answer is ecosystem.
To answer question 2:
1. Metallic bonding: This type of bonding occurs between metal atoms, where electrons are delocalized and shared among the metal ions in a lattice structure. However, this does not fully describe the process of sharing electrons between two atoms.
2. Ionic bonding: Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons from one atom to another, resulting in the formation of positively and negatively charged ions. This doesn't accurately match the process of sharing electrons between two atoms.
3. Covalent bonding: Covalent bonding occurs when two atoms share electrons between them. This is the process where electrons are shared mutual. It is the correct choice.
4. Nuclear bonding: Nuclear bonding is not a recognized term, and it does not accurately describe the process of sharing electrons between two atoms.
Thus, the correct answer is covalent bonding.
